My kids have a favorite Care Bears movie they watch, I happened to glance up at the screen just in time to see this: Artisan Home Entertainment. I laughed my butt off and the kids looked at me like I was crazy.

Sure this rep reads your blog??! Must have done it on purpose??(-: Here in New Zealand the buzz word is "retro" for every damn thing...just because something is doing the rounds again (to make more money for the company - marketing is king...) it becomes "retro" Drives me crazy, order a coffee and its served in a "RETRO CUP" .wow. Like it's supposed to make it taste better??! *is there really a "Knipchildt Chocolatier"?? Sounds a little creepy; especially if read phonetically.. Probably a retro company too....

OOOH! Some one spent some serious Money for those chocolates! Franz Knipschildt makes really good chocolates. He's an amazing chocolatier. They have a shop in CT. He's been on Bobby Flay's throwdown, and Food Network challenges in Chocolate making/sculpture.

(However, I do agree with you re: the over usage of Artisan to describe things)
